PSMA Analysis needed
I'm awaiting the visual images from my PSMA FDG scan. In the meantime, I've got a written report and I could do with your help. The backdrop is that I'm hoping to be considered eligible for PSMA therapy in Melbourne in May-Aug. At the heart of it lies a really simple question (and apologies for my naivety

Treatment help
just been told I have deep endometriosis on my uterus and my rectum. I already have a stoma due to Crohn’s disease and currently having prostap injections. Does anyone know what the treatment is for endo on the uterus and the rectum?

Tibilone experiences
I have very severe endometriosis and adenomyosis and am awaiting
surgery
which will likely involve having a
stoma
. I’ve previously had left ovary removed and both tubes and I’ve recently been told my right ovary is failing.

My next
surgery
will be a bowel resection, high chance of
stoma
and hysterectomy. However I’ve been warned this will not stop the disease from returning because there is NO CURE! Nor will it make my constant pain and extreme fatigue magically disappear. Thank you to whoever took the post down!

Pale skin during flare ups
I’ve got very severe stage 4 Endo with a lot of bowel involvement, relying a lot of pain relief every day now and treatment options have pretty much run out except the final
surgery
I’m allowed. This
surgery
would be total pelvic clearance and
stoma
.

(8.5 hrs) removing the bladder and creating a
stoma
opening in the abdomen from a bowel resection and created a a little pocket for the ureters to flow into which then flows into the urostomy bag outside on the abdomen.

Graves Disease
Hi, I have type 2 diabetes, I was over-prescribed metformin which had its horrors. When I came off it I was quickly diagnosed with thyroxicosis and hypercalcemia. Saw the endocrinologist yesterday. |He sat there and said do you know what you have wrong with you, then he told me I had Graves disease

Is this decision right for me
I had a PSMA pet scan on 7/16/2024. The result shows a single tumor in my left lung measuring 8mm. My MO wants me to have the tumor radiated and monitor the PSA and its doubling time. A little background, I'm just short of 83 years old. I had prostatectomy in 2009, PSA undetectable until 2017. I had

Need surgery
Hi I'm not new here but I thought I'd take a shot in the dark and explain the predicament that I am in. I have a prolapsed stoma which is 4 inches long and 55mm in diameter I've also herniated my bowel with it being 10cm in length. I also have 1 metre of small bowel left so not really much at all when

Does anyone know how long surgery is from your MDT meeting?
Hi warriors, I've just had my results from my MDT meeting. I've got to have a consent/discussion consultation and another with a bowel consultation incase I need a stoma. My question is, does anyone have a time scale of when they got surgery after the MDT meeting. I'm under Cambridge team. Thankyou

diverticulitis incontinence
Diverticulitis hot of nowhere. I fell down the stairs, was life flighted to UH main Campus, and had multiple Harkin’s procedures. Gutted thrice, like a catfish. I’ll be with ostomy for rest of my life. It’s been 40 days. Weak as a kitten I’m just in to rehab but still draining. They equipped me

Bowel or endometrioma pain?
Hi I'm hoping someone can shed a bit of light on my pain. I have endo in lots of places in POD on ligaments and my bowel.I also have a 5cm endometrioma. I am down for surgery for hysterectomy as I have adenomyosis and endo extraction. I've opted out of a bowel resection as the waiting list is longer

inflammation in eyes
I have an inflammatory eye condition either episcleritis or anterior uveitis. I’ve been on steroid drops for this which have given me cataract. On top of this inhave 2 stoma bags for a perforated bowel ( which triggered the eye inflammation). It’s been a horrendous time and I’ve become very down.

Stoma reversal
While I was waiting for my liver transplant I had an emergency
Stoma
surgery
and had a bag fitted, the surgeon that gave me my first check up for my liver said in about six months or so they will have me back in to reverse the Stoma.
